Debian Policy 4.1.5



A new version of the the Debian Policy has been released. According to the upgrading checklist [*], these are the two changes from 4.1.4 that could affect the DOG packages :

9.1.1 – Update Debian's version of the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard from 2.3 to 3.0, and update the list of exceptions. Only a tiny minority of packages, if any, should be made buggy by this change.

9.3.2 & 10.4 – Update version of POSIX standard for shell scripts from SUSv3 to POSIX.1-2017 (also known as SUSv4 in some contexts).

My guess is that none of them are relevant for the DOG packages. If there are no objections, I will mass-upgrade the Standards-Version of the packages.
